Nice plants.Yeah, I understand the concept of vert and why it has the potential to yield well, but a lot of the productive setups I've seen are not only tall but they're also a lot wider than your tent. Basically tall trees with lots of branching trained through some sort of cylindrical cage. Given your restrictions, I could see one going vert with your setup with a smaller bulb. Horizontal in that tent with a 1000 should give you 32 pieces without much work.
I've also wondered about the downtime that's associated with vert. With a horizontal setup, the light just hangs with a one-in-one out plan for the plants below. It's a productive setup 365 days/year. There seems to be a lot of downtime with vert as the plants seem to need to grow into the space and be trained for a few weeks before they're flipped. I've never seen a perpetual vert setup. People seem to yield well in vert given a two month time frame but is it possible to squeeze 6 harvests in per year?
But I'm not here to critique and don't feel the need to defend what you're doing, I'm just curious about the silver mountains. IMO, the best examples have clusters of seed bracts rather than colas of dense flowers. Expect great yields with some piney, minty, funky aromas.
These were the best...
These were just good...
Regarding your statements about vertical growing above, if you believe you've never seen a perpetual vert it's only because you didn't realize what you saw in my thread.
